After entering the wrong bridal chamber, I went to farm with the powerful minister

Yan Funing pinched his little face: "Babies are all like this. If Lang-ge'er says that, Aunt Meng will be angry."

"Yes."

Yan Yingying took her son's little hand and slapped it.

This left Shi Yangyang speechless.

To everyone's surprise, Pang Anmeng cheerfully replied, "I think it's ugly too."

Several people laughed.

Yuan Lang even pleaded with Yan Funing, "Auntie, please give me a little sister!"

Yan Funing tapped his head: "We'll have to wait until your uncle comes back to discuss this matter."
-
Five days after these words were spoken, the palace received an urgent report first, followed by reports from the Prince Rui's residence, the Yan family, the Yuan family, and the Pang family.

Yan Funing was busy on East Third Street that day.

When Fu Xi rode over with the message, Yan Funing was in the clothing shop, looking through the newly drawn garment designs one by one.

Among them are new dresses designed by the older sister and Shi Yangyang, as well as women's fitted outfits designed by Pang Anmeng.

Xiang Nuan said softly, "Miss, we used to receive designs from Princess Nan Yao, but now there aren't any. The princess is probably too busy to earn this little bit of money."

"Let her be." Yan Funing closed the design drawings. "Let's start making them all."

"Yes."

Xiang Nuan picked up the design booklet that had been bound together, intending to take it to the backyard to hand it over to the tailors, when suddenly, a shout came from outside the clothing shop.

"Your Highness, news has arrived!" Fu Xi dismounted and shouted, "Your Highness, news has arrived!"

Standing outside the counter, Xiang Nuan was the first to approach: "Ah Jian, what's the news?"

"We'll only know once the Princess sees it." Fu Xi hurried towards the counter.

Yan Funing also went around from behind the counter, took the envelope that Fu Xi presented, opened it, and took out the letter.

The top part is Fu Ciyi's handwriting, just eight large characters.

A resounding victory has been achieved, and we are already on our way home.

She smiled and looked up, saying to the people in the shop, "We've won, and we're on our way back to the capital."

"Great news! Fantastic news!" the crowd cheered.

Xiang Nuan put down the design brochure: "I'll go to Chengwenlou and tell Manager Liu about this."

Fu Xi said, "I'll go and talk to my grandfather and my parents."

The other shop assistants in the clothing store went out into the street and shouted that they had won.

Without Xiang Nuan even needing to say anything, Liu Song and He Shi had already come over upon hearing the sound.

"Did we really win?" Liu Song asked excitedly.

On the other side, Zhu Niangzi, who was picking up Tong Ya from the girls' school, quickened her pace upon hearing everyone's cheers.

Then Yan Funing and Liu Song said, "Yes, a great victory. I believe it won't be long before Brother Chengwen and Manager Tong return."

Tong Cheng, a skilled weapon maker, set off with the army.

Liu Chengwen disguised himself as her apprentice and went along with her. Yan Funing didn't find out about this for several days.

Xiang Yang said happily, "At that time, Young Master Chengwen and Manager Tong will be the great heroes of our East Third Street."

Tong Ya clapped her hands happily: "Daddy is a hero! Did Mommy hear that?"

Lady Zhu nodded: "I heard you, I heard you!"

Xiao Wen nodded in agreement with Xiang Yang: "That's right."

Xiao Wu added, "His Highness Prince Rui is an even greater hero."

Madam Tang smiled and said, "And there's the Third Young Master too."

"And all the generals of the Yan family!" Manager Yang said happily, stroking his beard. He then turned to his grandson and said, "It's a pity you're not going to the battlefield."

Fu Xi scratched the back of his head: "Grandson also wants to go. His Highness asked me to protect the Princess Consort's safety, and at the same time, I will have the opportunity to show my filial piety to you." Yang Shu and his son and daughter-in-law all understood that it was His Highness's grace that allowed their family to make up for the regret of not being able to reunite in the past.

"Since we're so happy today, let's all dine at Chengwenlou Restaurant and put it on my tab," Yan Funing said loudly.

Everyone cheered and applauded, their shouts rising in waves.
-
A few days passed.

The victorious army was stationed far away in a neighboring prefecture, while the soldiers returned to the capital to report on their duties.

As soon as the grand procession entered the city gate, it was greeted by crowds lining the streets.

Long Yi was waiting in the main hall early in the morning.

He was both surprised and delighted to see his soldiers return unharmed.

As the commander, Yan De recounted the war situation of the past six months with a strong voice: "...Many vassal states are now willing to become vassal states of the Great Jing. To put it simply, in the past, vassal states could have their own monarchs, but now their monarchs can be appointed or supported by the Great Jing."

Long Yi happily exclaimed, "Great!"

"Furthermore, after the defeat of Beiqi, they voluntarily ceded thirty cities to our Great Jing and are willing to become a vassal state of Great Jing, and will send tribute every year thereafter."

Long Yi nodded repeatedly: "Excellent!"

"Beiqi doesn't have any special products, so I took the liberty of asking them for more warhorses."

"Yes, it should be!" Long Yi waved his hand. "I will reward those who have contributed!"

"It is right for Your Majesty to reward those who have made contributions. This old minister has a few words to say first. His Highness Prince Rui is proficient in both literature and military strategy, and has been of great help to this old minister in the matter of leadership."

"The Ninth Prince and his scarred young brother beside him are extremely brave and skilled in battle, making one marvel at how formidable the younger generation is."

"Even these blacksmiths are skilled at killing enemies."

"General Pang, Prince Jin..." he rattled off a string of names, "There's no need to go into details, they are all upright and honorable young men!"

Long Yi laughed loudly: "Besides mentioning his own grandson-in-law, the old Duke didn't mention any other members of the Yan family, not even my imperial brother, Prince Cheng. Can you tell me why?"

Immediately, a general stepped forward: "Your Majesty, the Yan family army is capable of fighting ten men each, and their spirit of braving fire and water is worthy of our praise and emulation. The Yan family soldiers are also first-rate generals. Even if the old Duke doesn't mention it, we have achieved a great victory, and all of us have been able to return safely, all thanks to the Yan family."

"Yes!" Long Yi nodded heavily. "What you say is very true, my dear minister."

"The current situation is almost one of complete global unification."

The true unification of the world will now be left to Wen Yu.

This kid can do whatever he wants.

Now he is rewarded for his merits.
-
Prince Rui's Mansion.

Upon receiving the news, Yan Funing hurriedly went to the palace as well.

When she arrived, the rewards for meritorious service were still being distributed in the main hall, so she went to her mother's palace.

As soon as I entered the room, I heard my mother saying to Granny Li, "Ali has a scar on his face, what should we do?"

Granny Li frowned: "The princess and Ali were already estranged, and now that Ali has a scar on his face, what will happen to them..."

Upon hearing footsteps, the master and servant both turned around.

“Fu Ning.” Qiao Wanyou waved to her, “Ali’s face was slashed by the enemy.”

"Mother, please don't be anxious. Let me take a look at Ali's face in a moment."

"Can you cure it?"

“We should check first. My husband has two guards by his side, Leng Feng and Leng Ying. They have burns on their faces, but they have almost healed by now.”

"Yes, Leng Feng Leng Ying, I know." Qiao Wanyou was slightly relieved.

Just then, Eunuch Han came over, beaming with joy.

"Your Majesty, good news!"

He saw Yan Funing was also there and respectfully greeted her, "Princess Consort Rui..."

She had barely uttered the words when she immediately corrected herself: "I should address you as Crown Princess now." (End of Chapter)
